Getting Started

You need to set an Api Key for your machine. To do this, run the following from your shell:

$ python -m multyvac.setup

Follow the on screen instructions to complete the setup process.

Verify Installation

Open up Python, and import multyvac:

>>>importmultyvac

If you get an ImportError, something went wrong. Try running the setup again.

Running a Job

The idea is to take a function that you would normally run on your own machine, but instead run it on Multyvac. Here’s an example of how you would offload a function for adding two numbers:

>>>defadd(x,y):...returnx+y>>># run add on your machine>>>add(1,2)3>>># submit add to Multyvac>>>job_id=multyvac.submit(add,1,2)>>># get job object>>>job=multyvac.get(job_id)>>># wait for job to finish processing>>>job.wait()>>># verify the result is the same>>>job.result3
